Fischer/Evans: “The two had a disagreement, and Fischer did not choose him [Larry Evans, (as a second)] for the (1972) championship match itself.”
Evans Influence on Fischer
Citation from “Evans on Chess,” Reno Gazette-Journal Reno, Nevada Saturday, December 21, 1974
“…Fischer told a reporter that the story that he had sold Life magazine an exclusive interview during the match with Spassky was ‘a dirty lie.’” ‘I was busy,’ he said. ‘If I'd given an interview to every body that asked, I'd have lost the match.’” New York Times, 9/23/1972
